Handwritten notes: This bad boy has a crazy taste of prunes, raisins, dates and other fruitcake delights. I dislike eggnog but this kind of has that classic eggnog taste. One time on New Years eve of 2008 I saw a completely plastered idiot walk into a 7-11 and yell (inappropriately loudly) at the cashier: "Y'G'IGGNOGG!?" I guess that means "do you have any eggnog" in drunk talk. Then I saw him driving away after he got his "IGGNOGG!". This beer is a cacophony of mincemeat and holiday flavours. So much so that I would expect it would be cloudy or murky. This is an ok novelty beer. Try one Christmas morning after Santa leaves you nothing but crippling credit card debt and herpes.
